A Beleza da In-Definição de Sociedade em Bruno Latour

“In the alternative view, ‘social’ is not some glue that could fix everything including what the other flues cannot fix; it is what is glued together by many other type of connectors.(…) it’s perfectly acceptable to designate by the same word a trail of associations between heterogeneous elements.(5)

Na definição de grupo social através daqueles que falam sobre a existencia do grupo, dizendo quem são eles, o que eles devem ser, o que eles têm sido. “Groups are not silent things, but rather the provisional product of a constant uproar made by the millions of contradictory voices about what is a group and who pertains to what” (31)

” An ‘actor’ in the hyphenated expression actor-network is not the source of an action but the moving target of a vast array of entities swarming toward it.(…) To use the word ‘actor’ means that it’s never clear who and what is acting when we act since an actor on stage is never alone in acting” (46).
